Course Overview

Process simulation is a versatile tool used by process engineers to investigate about the feasibility of a process and to carry out preliminary design of chemical plants. This course will give you the knowledge necessary to use process simulation software with confidence and efficacy in order to save up money and time associated with the engineering activities.

Objective:

In this programme you will:

Identify the field of application of process simulation
Learn to dig out and to use information related to a chemical process
Learn to create a mathematical model of a chemical process
Learn to use the graphical user interface of a process simulation software
Learn to produce and interpret the results of a process simulation
Understand optimization and de-bottlenecking philosophy
Learn to overcome different issues
Use a process simulation software in a guided practical session
